Memora Health, a company whose platform integrates with the EHR to automate clinicians' routine care tasks and streamline care management operations, will work with Utah-based Intermountain Health on a partnership that will initially focus on cancer care with plans to extend across additional clinical areas over the next several years.

San Francisco-based Memora Health, which helps health systems digitize and automate workflows, has received an investment of $30 million, led by General Catalyst and including participation by two health systems: New York-based Northwell Holdings, the venture investment arm of Northwell Health, and Chicago-based Endeavor Health.

In a February 2023 interview with Healthcare Innovation, Manav Sevak, co-founder and CEO of San Francisco-based Memora Health, said his company helps healthcare organizations digitize and automate a lot of workflows with two really big goals in mind: “The first is to unburden the care team and allow them to focus on things that are top of license and allow them to really home in on what they're trained to do. Second, how do you much more proactively guide and engage a patient in understanding all the different steps that they have to follow and give them very high-touch experience in navigating their care? We work with over 50 healthcare organizations across the country, everything from large academic systems to large community-based health systems to federally qualified health centers.”

“The moment a person is diagnosed with cancer, their life changes. Being able to provide consistent communication with patients to address questions and concerns about their care is critical and very important to us,” said Derrick Haslem, M.D., senior medical director for cancer care at Intermountain, in a statement. “Memora’s technology helps our busy care teams with daily tasks and empowers them to focus on what matters most: delivering high-quality care to our patients.”

When necessary, Memora’s platform can identify complex issues and connect them to their doctor or clinical care team for more support. In this way, the company said, the technology empowers health systems to scale personalized, high-quality care while also minimizing time spent by providers on routine administrative tasks.

Memora and Intermountain say they plan to scale this innovative technology to additional service lines, streamlining workflows and supporting the patient experience across the full enterprise.
